This week in NH two homeowners awoke to noises in their house during the night. The husband tucked a gun under his arm and approached the intruder (who was obviously on something) while rifling through their medicine cabinet... An altercation ensued, the intruder was also armed, and shot the homeowner! So many things wrong with this approach. The wife managed to arm herself and hold the perp for police to arrive. Very real scenario with potentially devastating outcomes for the victims. NH has Castle Doctrine. I get it, adrenaline is pumping but please chime in, how could this have been handled better?
